Poll Suggestion: Films Based on Radio Play

So not really a radio play. Perhaps the poll title should just say "Radio Shows".

Peter,

I agreed. The Prairie Home Companion definitely would be considered a radio play. However, there are radio plays within the show.

I had the pleasure of meeting Garrison Keillor before the "The Prairie Home Companion" started. Keillor was the morning drive time host at the time. I was volunteering during pledge drive answering telephones.

Peter, Dan

How does the fact that there are references to radio shows or radio play prohibit it to be a radio play?

Anyway, "Radio Show" is too broad.

Also, I don't think that I'm gonna do a poll for TV series, I know nothing about TV series and even less about Radio Play because all those Radio Plays are in English. Radio can't really be dubbed for the international public so it was never aired where I live.

A Prairie Home Companion just isn't a radio play, but a radio show. You can look it up.

You say "Radio Shows" is too broad, but your question refers to "films based on a show aired on the radio". Your title ought to match the question.

OK, I changed the title to Films Based on Radio Show

Removed both War of the Worlds

I think that Topper and Topper Returns are based on a book by Thorne Smith.

The Day of the Triffids is based on a 1951 book

Check and Double Check  doesn't meet the 5000+ votes criteria same for The Great Gildersleeve, Fibber McGee, and Molly and Have Gun, Will Travel


PS: I didn't spend too much time on the poorly made Wikipedia page.

But Perry Mason was only released on TV Series and TV Movie, am I right?

  
Not from Radio ? ?  Not for your list ? ?
  
There were Theater Movies not with Raymond Burr
from novels of  Erle Stanley Gardner.
